Neighborhood Deprivation and Racial/Ethnic Disparities in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Viral Suppression: A Single-center, Cross-sectional Study in the United States Midwest

Abstract

Combating disparities is a crucial goal of ongoing efforts to end the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) epidemic. In a multivariable analysis of a cohort in the Midwestern United States, racial/ethnic disparities in HIV viral suppression were no longer robust after accounting for other sociodemographic factors. Neighborhood deprivation and low income were independently inversely associated with viral suppression.
